I have no desire to have a mobile wallpaper section on WC. I was just wondering if people who create wallpapers would benefit from including resolutions that are more mobile friendly. Although I'm not sure that's even necessary as it's quite easy to make any image a wallpaper....at least in iOS. We appreciate the comments and getting a conversation going! :)

Since the beginning of COVID, webcams have been hard to come by as vast amounts of people starting both working from home and having school at home. Webcams sold out for months and it seems they are just now slowly coming back in stock. If you have a Sony camera such as a RX100 or an A-series camera, you can now easily use them as a webcam without any additional hardware. Sony released the Imaging Edge Webcam application for free so if you have a Sony camera, be sure to grab it.

I understand that people have lives outside of WC, but I sure as hell miss some of those departed/hardly ever here me

Among one of the many things COVID has brought us is the cancellation of much needed vacations across the world. It's destroyed a great deal of the travel industry, and things like theme parks are just starting to reopen. One of my personal favorites, the cruise industry, has barely started to come back and normal cruising won't resume probably until well into next year. We have had 3 out of the 4 scheduled cruises this year cancelled, with only one of those not related to COVID. At t

Video streaming and video content creation have risen greatly in popularity over the past few years. Video game streaming alone has turned into a multi-million dollar industry, and even just hobbyists are getting in on the action. Video creators like vloggers and many other channels on YouTube have created an amazing resource of educational and entertainment content. If you're a streamer or content creator, you can use <a href="https://www.stardock.com/products/multiplicity/" target="

I have mostly a "smart" home. For the security portion I am using mostly stuff from Wyze . Mostly because it's super cheap and performs well for the price. Cameras start at around $20, but those are USB powered. They recently released a wireless outdoor camera that is battery powered. I've used Arlo in the past, but that is a pricey system to have and performance is nearly identical to what I have now.

Are you trying to download this from your store account or the skin page? I also don't see Insidious being purchased on this account.

Happy Birthday Windows 10! Today is 5 years since Windows 10 was originally released on July 29th, 2015. I've been a user since before that being in various beta programs, and overall I have been happy with it over these past few years. It's also exciting for me to be part of a great company that makes awesome products to make Windows 10 even better! Windows 10 has certainly changed a lot over the past 5 years with lots of updates, and our friends over at Neowin have put together a gr

Computer monitors have become much bigger and the prices have become quite more reasonable than they used to. I picked up a nice 34" widescreen for just a couple of hundred bucks. It's not 4K, but HD has been working quite well for me. I do have a 4K touchscreen laptop, and that is certainly nice to have when working with images and video. But the question today is what size wallpaper resolution do you typically look to download? Do you even look to see what resolutions are available?

I have a new CNC machine going in my shop, and I needed a Windows PC to run the code going to the machine. My current laptop I use for work is a Dell XPS 15" 4K touchscreen which is something I'm not going to keep in a place that is often filled with sawdust. So I needed something as cheap as possible but still capable of running quite a few applications. After searching on Amazon and eBay I narrowed it down to a $90 Windows tablet and an <a href="https://amzn.to/3hspX7v" target="_blank" rel=

If you purchase a product (such as WindowBlinds), you get one year of unlimited downloads. The same goes for a WC sub. Also, if you have an active Object Desktop membership. After that time your account reverts back and you will be subject to download caps.
